JEE

An 82 percentile in JEE Mains may lead to admission into some National Institutes of Technology (NITs) and Institutes of Higher Education (IIITs). However, this depends on factors such as category, specific branch, and JEE Mains session. Cutoff percentiles are lower for categories like Other Backward Classes (OBC), Scheduled Castes (SC), and Scheduled Tribes (ST), and may differ slightly for different branches like Computer Science Engineering (CSE) or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE). To determine which colleges you might qualify for with an 82 percentile, look at previous years' cutoffs for NITs and IIITs, and use online college predictor tools to estimate your chances of getting into these colleges. It's also important to consider colleges beyond NITs and IIITs, as many reputable universities and institutes accept JEE Mains scores for admissions.

A minor spelling mistake in your mother's name on the JEE Mains application form is likely not a major issue. If the misspelling is minor, it should not cause any problems. Check the official JEE Mains website to see if there is a correction window open for the application form. If there is, try to correct the spelling during that period. If there is no correction window or the misspelling is very minor, you can take the exam without worry. Obtaining an affidavit from a notary public can provide additional documentation in case of issues. For more information, check previous discussions on forums on different websites. It's best to act based on the latest information from the official JEE Mains website.
